About the Role

Confidential Client is seeking a Bilingual Social Worker to join a pediatric care team in South Jordan, UT. This part-time position (20–25 hours/week) focuses on case management, screening, referral coordination, and language-access services delivered directly in Spanish (not through an interpreter). The role supports families with needs around medical coverage, behavioral health, food, housing, transportation, and other community resources.

What You’ll Do

• Conduct intake, needs screening, and case management for referred patients and families, in person and by phone
• Screen for unmet needs (Medicaid/CHIP/Marketplace eligibility, behavioral health, food, housing, transportation, childcare, utilities, immunizations, school services)
• Complete and submit applications with families (Medicaid, CHIP, Marketplace, WIC, SNAP, clinic financial assistance) and track outcomes
• Place and confirm referrals to community agencies and behavioral health providers
• Provide all services directly in Spanish, including applications, calls, written follow-up, and informal interpretation during provider conversations
• Adapt Spanish patient materials so they read naturally for families
• Coordinate with clinic providers and staff — respond to referrals within agreed turnaround times and report case status
• Attend clinic huddles or care-team meetings on a rotation covering southern clinics
• Document every contact, referral, and application in the medical record promptly and factually
• Maintain HIPAA compliance and follow mandatory reporting and safeguarding protocols; escalate clinical issues to licensed clinicians
